The Nigoryo Aqueduct, originating from the Tama River, is one of the oldest artificial waterways in Kanagawa Prefecture, dating back to 1611. Stretching approximately 32 km from Kawasaki City's Tama Ward to Saiwai Ward, it offers scenic walking paths, especially beautiful during the cherry blossom season. Visitors can enjoy a peaceful stroll along the aqueduct, observing the local flora and fauna, and appreciating the historical significance of this well-preserved waterway. The aqueduct is easily accessible from stations like Shukugawara and Noborito on the JR Nambu Line, making it a convenient and enriching destination for a leisurely visit. It’s a great spot for a relaxing walk any time of year, but especially stunning in spring.
